Is there a way to unit test localization resources in asp.net core class libarary? - unit-testing

Question

I want to have a resource class library and test it in another mstest class libary.
this is my project.json in resource library : (my resx file is in Resources folder)
{
"version": "1.0.0-*",
"dependencies": {
"NETStandard.Library": "1.6.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.DataAnnotations": "1.0.1"
},
"buildOptions": {
"embed": {
"include": [ "Resources/PS.ModelBase.Models.Person.fa.resx" ]
}
},
"frameworks": {
"netstandard1.6": {
"imports": "dnxcore50"
}
}
}
and this is my test method :
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Resources;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace PS.ModelBaseTest
{
[TestClass]
public class PersonTest
{
[TestMethod]
public void FullNameValidateNullFirstName()
{
ResourceManager rm = new ResourceManager(typeof(PS.ModelBase.Models.Person));
string test = rm.GetString("Fisrt Name", new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("fa-IR"));
Assert.AreEqual("Fisrt Name", test);
}
}
}
I have this error when I run the test :
Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or
the neutral culture. Make sure "PS.ModelBase.Models.Person.resources"
was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "PS.ModelBase" at
compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are
loadable and fully signed.
what should I do ?
َUpdate :
Ok. I solved my problem by inserting resx to the Models folder (Where the Person class is in it ) and renamed resx files to class name (like Person.en.resx) .
Nothing to do with project.json :
{
"dependencies": {
"NETStandard.Library": "1.6.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.DataAnnotations": "1.0.1"
},
"frameworks": {
"netstandard1.6": {
"imports": "dnxcore50"
}
},
"version": "1.0.0-*"
}
But I faced another problem .I want to remain my resx files in Resources folder , not in Models folder! How can embed resx file to person class when is in Resources folder ?
I got the second problem. In fact the resource file and the class must be in a same domain

Using the following two resources as reference :
Github Issue: Updates to project.json schema
project.json reference
Based on project file in question, either try
"includeFiles" string/string[]
A list of file paths to include. The paths are rooted at the project folder. This list has a higher
priority than the include and exclude globbing patterns, hence a file
listed here and in the exclude globbing pattern will still be
included. Defaults to none.
"buildOptions": {
"embed": {
"includeFiles": [ "Resources/PS.ModelBase.Models.Person.fa.resx" ]
}
}
for just the one resource file, or
"include" string/string[]
A list of file globbing patterns for files
to include. The patterns are rooted at the project folder. Defaults to
none.
"buildOptions": {
"embed": {
"include": [ "Resources" ]
}
}
for the contents of the Resources folder
